o O TEIf MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tornado Has Prestige Objective in Tangle With Maroon Eleven A Medford high football ob jective tonight To regain for southern Oregon some of its lost prestige. ' The Black Tornado is at Mil- waukie this evening, aiming for its third triumph of the season and facing one of the top aggre gations in the metropolitan area. A victory for Medford definitely would add a ray of brightness to a somewhat dismal picture. When the season opened early this month, there was a favor able t outlook for clubs of the area.' Medford and Klamath Falls trimmed two Portland schools, Cleveland aid Port laria, respectively. But the sit uation turned bleak the follow ing week. Gresham whacked the Black Tornado, North Bend clubbed Grants Pass and Eugene downed Klamath Falls. c It didn't help when Marsh- field smeared Grants Pass last week. But now, if Medford can turn back the Maroons, and do it de cisively, some of that lost honor can be restored. It adds up this way: Milwaukee holds a 6-to-2 verdict over Central Catholic, which got a 2-to-0 nod over North Bend. The Bulldogs of North Bend ar, being rated No. 7 in the state despite their initial setback. Astoria, ranked No. 8, barely beat Milwaukie 20 to 19 last week and scoutohave rated Milwaukee a better club than their performance showed. Medford goes against the Maroons tonight the underdog, regardless of a better showing in the win-loss columns. The Tornado boasts two wins against one setback while Milwaukie, Iacap li..- a 4r n in XT i 1 cKnrn in Its season opener, has a one-two I SSL1FCHBQS 5. Use 6.

Fast, Deceptive Club Milwaukie has a club which is ftst and has good deception. Quickies and pitchouts are spe cialties of the Maroon T offen eive. A Bill Haller to Ken War ner combination gives it an air arm. But Medford should about match the Maroons in weight and could come up with some offensive surprises. Coach Fred Spiegelberg has had the Tornado working on passing this week and the club has a number of throwers, Dick 'McLaughlin John Bellack and Gary Riley. Addition of Riley, the transfer from Baker, also gives Medford more strength on the ground. A quick, hard, deceptive runner, Riley should be an even more effective back this week with more familiarity with Medford plays. Probable offensive starters to- night are Dick Copple and Jerry Gatliri or Mike Stearns, ends; Tom Cox and Neil Plumley, tackles; Monte Hoist and Jack Gregory, guards; Gary Shaffer, center, and . McLaughlin, Dave Bosworth, John Hawley and Bellack or Riley. For defense, Butt probably will replace Gat- in or Stearns and Mel Morgan may be in for Cox. Bob Apple would replace Bosworth and take a guard post with Gregory going to a linebacker spot.

Victor Over Jacksonville Central Point Prospect high, frequently over-eager but flash ing some good offensive execu tion, thumped Jacksonville 25 to 0 here last night in a Jackson county B League football tarfgle. The Cougars touchdowned twice in the second quarter and once each in the third and fourth periods. They were deep in Jacksonville territory on at least two other occasions. Penalties hampered the Prospect attack, however. Had it not been for the infractions, the Cougar mar gin would have been wider. Jacksonville's- main weapons were buck-lateral and buck-pass plays but the Prospect defense limited the Redskins to few good gains. The 'Skins never got closer to the Prospect goal than the 23-yard line. The Cougars drove from their 35 to the Jacksonville nine in the opening quarter but lost the ball on downs. But moments later they got another chance when Jim Martin recovered a fumble on the nine. Two plays later in the first scrimmage action of the second stanza L y 1 e Pope sneaked over from the six. Il legal procedure prevented a fake kick try for the extra point from counting. Another run from the kick formation was short Drive From 35 Prospect reached the Redskin 11 in the second quarter. Pope ran to the goal from there but a motion infraction nullified the play. Then the Cougars lost the ball on downs after being hurt by an offside infraction. But the mountain crew had another opportunity and made good a bit later. Time was running out when the Cougars got the ball on the Redskin 35. On the fifth play of the. series Don Vannice went nine yards through the mid dle to tally. His extra point buck was short. A 76-yard drive paid off in the third quarter after a pass in terception by Darwin Bean. It took eight plays and the help of a 15-yard penalty against Jack sonville. Pope went the final yard as the half ended. Vannice's kick try was no good. A 48-yard surge got the TD in the final quarter. Nine were required with Darwin Bean going-over from a yard out and Pope passing to Leon Bean for the 'bonus. Prospect had a wide margin in first downs, 13 to 3. It was Prospect's first win in two conference scrapes and Jack sonville s league starter. Jack Grebb To Miss EP Mix Tonight Eagle Point Fullback Jack Greb will be .missing from the line-up tonight when the Eagle Point gridders play the Rogue River Chieftains at Eagle Point. Greb hurt an ankle in the Illinois Valley contest last week and Coach Stan Smith said that he would not use the back no matter how much the need. Other ailments are also plag uing - the Eagles. Back Monte Axtell hag a shoulder injury, Back Errol Tresham is still bothered by an ankle. Back Jim Duncan was having a doctor check some ' sore ribs today Tackle Norm Hooper has had the flu but it expected to be ready tonight Smith's likely starting back- field has Gale Friend at quarter back, Tresham at right half, Adrian Aiod at fullback and Jack Bunker at left half. Jim Stuart could see some duty at right half. ' In the line the probable start ers are Ron Nelsen and Wayne Christian, ends; Dean Tibbetts and Hooper,. tackles;-Dick Wal lace and Jim (Tank) Bunker, guards, Larry Dodenhoff, cent er. ... REMARK CORRECTED New York (U.R) Bill Terry has hastened to correct an in advertent remark that was con strued into a report that he had made an. offer to buy the New York Giants. "Yeah, I'd like to have the Giants," T their former manager, now a millionaire busi nessman, said. "But I've made no offer nor do I intend to make one for them. Nuts, there's a lot SlPODIffiTrS Fanfare The question has come to us: Why couldn't some fish besides trout or some fish aiong with trout bass, for instance be planted in Lake of the Woods in which afl fish life was destroy ed on September 21? One answer is that trout are more suited to the lake, which has a high mountain location. Rate of growth for bass and other spiny rayed fish is slow in high lakes. They need the warmer temperatures of lower levels to thrive. Bass need forage fish and it would mean also planting of sunfishes. Planting trout and bass togeth er just wouldn't work. The two species are incompatible. Bass are cannibals and predators. They would crowd trout out unless a program of stocking large-size trout is adopted and that is too expensive, a game official says. Main reason for the rotenone treatment of the lake was, of course, the lack of sufficient food for the tremendous piscatorial population of the lake. . That was seen in many stunted fish and was reason enough, despite any objections, for rehabilitation of the lake. Any improvement is better than the condition of the lake before the big project was undertaken. The Game Commission-probably would listen if home owners at the lake and the public campaigned for stocking with fish other than trout. But whether planting with anything but trout is advisable is another question. Perch were the main problem in the lake with carp running second. Game officials say that perch eventually would have crowded out the carp. CARP IN 13TH YEAR The huge 36-inch 195s poUnd carp the poisoning brought to the surface at Lake of the Woods was in its 13th year and appeared to have spawned eight times. That's the report from a scale read ing by Cole Rivers, Game Com mission biologist at Grants Pass. Rivers again expressed for his department its appre ciation of the aid by sports men and summer home owners in the big treatment project NEW RACING LOOK There may be a new look in auto racine here next summer. New model stock car competi tion with races on a paved rather than dirt track is being talked. The change from old model hard tops to the later cars could stem sagging interest with its Tivalry between the various makes of cars as well as between individ uals. A marathon auto race for 1956 is reportedly still . being considered despite the fact that the 24-hour Labor day holiday run this year took a beating attendance-wise. LORIN JACOBS AT UO.

MOYER PLAYS FOOTBALL Phil Moyer, Portland, the northwest middleweight boxing champ who licked Hank Casey, San Francisco, in the PAL box ing show here last Saturday, went into the bout after playing a Friday night football game for Central Catholic against Camas, Wash. He got a bump in the chin and had a bum knee as result of the game but the injuries weren't serious enough to slow him in the ring fray. Moyer, offensive halfback and defensive guard for the Rams, says he prefers the bodily contact type of sports to such games as basketball and baseball, although he plays the latter, too.

Hutchinson Enters Card Pilot0 Race New York (U.R) Fred Hutch inson, former Detroit Tigers pilot, has entered the St. Louis Cardinals managerial sweep stakes and is running a strong race along with Leo Durocher and Marty Marion. The entire picture will be crystallized Vhen Lane formally signs as general manager of the Cardinals , shortly. Hutchinson's chances hinge upon whether Du rocher or Marion, Lane's pri mary choices, .are willing and able to be released from their present commitments.' Marion signed a new contract last summer to manage the Chi cago White Sox for the next two seasons. Lane has spoken to Mar ion about the prospect of mov ing to the Cards, but no definite conclusions was reached, the United Press learned. Durocher, who resigned as manager of the New York Giants Sept. 24, signed a lucra tive contract last week with the National Broadcasting Co. He can be released from that agree ment, but it may take some talking to induce him -back into baseball in 1956. Harry (The Hat) .Walker's "1. Keep calm. Sit down for awhile and relax. Then think out your situation. "2. Move to the nearest road intersection, road or clearing. If you thing you're able to get help soon, head downhill on the most traveled road. Leave a note or prominent sign on the road at your point of departure indicat ing the direction you've taken. If exhausted or injured, stay put in the most prominent spot you can find. Put a garment, news paper or something to attract at tention on a nearby visible tree or rock or lay it on the ground if you've been out long enough to rate a possible air search. "3. Call, signal, watch and listen. If you've enough ammu nition, fire occasional groups of three shots about five seconds apart the universal distress signal. "4. Try not to travel after dark. In extreme emergency, carefully clear a bare place on the ground and start a small sig nal fire. Be sure the fire is out even in the rain before you travel on."
